Oliver's POV Today we journey to witness the Union of my dear sister, Octavia, and her true mate, Essex. It gave me hope of my future with my own mate even if we beat them to the altar already. She was absolutely perfect for me.It's been nice being around my mate, Jamela. We were dispatched to our future kingdom these last few months. With Tavi and Essex ruling all the lands, things have already begun to prosper. It's been over a year now, and they are unmarried but equal. Too bad we were heading back for the possible bad news. "What are you thinking about, mate?" Jamela lazily asked. "How much has changed within only a year," I answered. "Come to bed, Alpha. Your Luna requires your immediate attention," she whispered in my ear. "What am I getting out of it?" I jokingly asked. "Undeniable satisfaction," she purred, straddling my lap. "Sounds like a fair deal," I groaned, feeling her grind on me. "You're quite an easy target," she giggled, inserting her hand inside my trousers strok
Alpha King Lincoln's POV Flashback…McKenna agreed to allow Jonah to live with me while she takes some time to grieve. He didn't want to leave, but he also didn't want his mother alone. Jonah is such a good and robust pup. Jubilee did well by them all. "You must think I'm a horrible mother," she sighed. "No, you are one of the strongest she-wolves I know. I will take good care of Jonah. I swear it," I replied. "Don't make him love you more than me," she joked. "How could anyone love anything or anyone more than you?" I said unintentionally. "Take care of yourself, my lord," she replied, ignoring my comment. "Where will you go?" I asked. "How will I ever find you? How will I know you're in trouble?" I asked. "I'm going someplace safe at least for a little while. There is something I must do," she assured me. "If you should ever need anything, I will always be here for you," I reminded her. "For that, I am grateful," She bowed before disappearing. McKenna left my study to bid farewel
Alpha Queen Octavia's POV Antionette's mother, Beatrice, made her argument to the elders about Antionette receiving asylum. Last I heard, Beatrice had found her daughter another suitor. I'm not sure if it is true, but it disgusts me either way. It's been a long time since she's revealed the truth about Lincoln's father and her true lineage with Lady Donyale. Now that my mother finally knows, it seems that things will get better. "Are you nervous?" Tilly sleepily asked. "Emmm, I just want to stay in bed," I said groggily. "Hurry yourself, my Queen! Violet and Vidalia will be here any minute now!" Quinn chuckled. She had way too much energy for my liking this early in the morning. "You all look dreadful," Violet said, bursting into my quarters. "Do you see this, Vi? They all slept over and didn't bother to invite us," Vidalia laughed. "KeepIt down, ladies," I said, putting the pillow back over my head. "Oh, get up! Today is your lucky day! You're marrying my brother. Get up, my Q
Alexis's POV My instincts told me to run toward the east, but the blood trail led me west. I'm glad I listened because the view that stood out in front of me only disgusted my thoughts on my deranged brother. "What have you done, brother?" I asked spotting Nimrod with bloodied hands. "Don't even think about it. It's not my blood. It's his," he sneered looking toward who I assumed to be Essex's stepfather, Rendon. "That bitch cut me!" Rendon shouted. "Why are you helping this piece of shit? Father would never approve!" I shouted at him. "Keep your voice down you little cunt!" Rendon growled. It took less than a millisecond to have my hand around his throat. "Let him go!" Nimrod commanded instantly making me drop the ingrate. "How dare you command me? Where the fuck is father?" I said loudly hoping to grab the attention of our warriors. "FATHER DISOWNED YOU! You let me worry of his whereabouts," he said seething. “I should suck him clean of his blood!” I snarled. Before I realized
Antionette's POV "Rise and shine, my lady!" My newest handmaiden, Ana said happily entering my quarters. "It's too early," I groaned. "Please get up, my lady. "Your mother is on a rampage this morning," Ana nervously explained. "I'll be right there. I demand privacy," I said and she bowed. Lately I've had little to no sleep. With every waking day to that carry Phillip's pup, my back cries for relief. My golden hair flowed down my back with large waves framing my face. My skin glowed under the sunlight, but my lips were swollen with frailty to match my delicate feet. I didn't care these days. I only craved Phillip. My wolf whimpered at the thought. "Mother, will you pleases drop it!" I pleaded. "No! I begged the elders to honor your asylum. Don't you know how close the vote was? Do you have any idea?" she asked. "How could I not? You've only reminded me everyday," I said rolling my eyes. "How could you get yourself knocked up by that...by that runaway?" my mother scoffed. "He's not
Violet's POV"Tilly? What has brought you here?" I asked walking inside the pack castle. "Octavia has sent me on a mission. It's good to see you, Vi! We must catch up. It's been a while," she said embracing me. "It is always good to see you! Meet me in the gardens later, will you?" I asked. "Yes, my meeting with the griping Earls should not last long. Is everything okay?" She asked. "Not really. My mother is more conniving than what I ever imagined," I sighed. "Don't look so surprised," I smirked. "N-No, that's not it. It's just your family has hurt me a lot in the past. I guess hearing about your family opens old wounds," she said awkwardly. "I'm sorry," I said clasping her hand. "It's not your fault those twats mistreated me. I have to go. See you later?" She asked. "I've missed you," I cooed hugging her tightly. “Yes, see you later,” I smiled.After leaving my mother, I felt enraged, disappointed, and hurt. She grew lonely with her mate, who I know as my father. So, she laid with h
Lawrence's POVI cannot believe Matilda slipped through my grasp AGAIN! She will be MINE! I will never let her get away for humiliating me. Neither would Adelina. I ripped her pup from her wound. I thought that would be enough but she still breaths."Where have you been?" Karly asked the moment I walked into the gates of the North Kingdom. "Scouting," I dryly replied. "Where? I've been scouting for days and I've never come across your scent. Neither had I smelled your rogue team. So, where were you?" She asked placing her hands on her hips. "Karly, I'm royalty here. It's best you begin the treat me as such. Is that attitude any way to greet the wolf you share a bed with?" I asked turning her around to force her chest into the wall. "Do you...really think...having sex is going to fix this? It will not!" She complained as I shuffled around her dress for easier access. "No, but it may shut you up for some time I'm hoping," I chuckled ripping her garments from her skin. "Ow!" She squealed
Taysia's POV "Why are you here again? Why put yourself through the torture of being here with me?" Rose shouted. "You are my sister! I would never give up on you!" I replied. "I WAS your sister until you made me a slave to a bunch of perverted morons! GET OUT!" She screamed throwing a pot at my head. "Don't you even want to see your nephew? He misses his aunt," I whimpered. "He doesn't even know me. I feel sorry for your pup because he has you as a mother," she murmured before turning to face the fire where tonight's stew was brewing. "You don't mean that," I whispered only to be ignored. The days drug on without my sister by my side. She had been locked away long ago the night they drug her away. She's been enslaved, but Lady Donyale and Sayid gave her linens and cooking duty. Meaning, I get to see her from time to time even if she was unaccepting of it. "Stop chasing Rose. I'm sure she will come to you when the time is right. After all, she's a traitor," my mate, Sayid said to me
